 Thank you for the additional information Toni.
 
 Please read and follow the instructions here carefully:
 
 http://lists.freebsd.org/pipermail/freebsd-python/2014-April/006828.html
 
 and then here:
 
 https://svnweb.freebsd.org/ports/head/UPDATING?r1=347059&r2=347362
 
 Specifically, you have an outdated and redundant copy of 'distribute'
 installed in your site-packages directory that is causing the issue.
 
 Summary:
 
 - Remove *all* files/dirs related to distribute from site-packages/
 - Remove py-setuptools, REPLACE it with py-setuptools27
 
 Lastly, please report back on success or failure, so that we can close
 the PR or provide additional advice.
